The Foumban Royal Palace is a historical building in the city of Foumban. The Palace Museum tells the history of the dynasty of the Bamum kings from 1394 to the present day, with information on the most famous of the Bamum kings, Ibrahim Njoya, who died in 1933 and who created a writing system at the end of the 19th century called Bamum script. We will visit the museum and palace of the Bamoun kings, the market, the workshop of craftsmen, bronze smelters and the craft galleries. Friday is a day of prayer, you will have the opportunity to attend the fantasia of the prayer exit in honor of the Sultan (only if the Sultan is present).

The visit of the palace is very informative and culturally very interesting. I recommend it. It’s too bad the new museum hasn’t been inaugurated yet I look forward to it. One remark: the visit of the artisanal village is a bit of a hustle.
